Summary

In this project 60+60 women with breast cancer are studied with questionnaires, interviews and medical data through a one-year period. A smaller study on imunology is added for 20+20 women. Women with brest cancer treated at Vidarkliniken, an antroposophic hospital, were individually matched with women treated at conventional hospitals. The two groups are compared and studied separately.
